What is a loft insulation top-up?

Before we quote we measure the existing layer in several places and check its condition. If it is dry, even and not contaminated, we keep it and lay the top-up across it at right angles. More about a loft insulation top-up.

Downlights made safe

Fire-rated covers or a clear zone around recessed lights.

Boarding done properly

Storage boards go on loft legs, never straight onto the insulation.

Questions about a loft insulation top-up in Porthcawl

Can a landlord in Porthcawl book work for a tenanted house?

Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.

Do you take on jobs outside Porthcawl?

Yes. We also work in Bridgend and Maesteg and elsewhere in Mid Glamorgan.

What do I need to do before you arrive in Porthcawl?

Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.

Which way should the top-up layer run?

Across the joists, at right angles to the first layer. That covers the tops of the joists, which otherwise let heat escape along the timber.

Can I still store things in the loft after a top-up?

Not directly on the insulation. A 270 mm layer stands well above the joists, so storage needs raised boarding on loft legs.
